+FFmpeg is a complete solution to record, convert and stream audio
+and video. It includes libavcodec, the leading audio/video codec
+library.
+
+This script is tested using the svn code from 20071003, and this is
+the tarball hosted on our site.  You may elect to use this source
+code to build the package, or you can pull the latest from their
+subversion repository as indicated below.
+
+If you want to use the latest subversion source when building your
+ffmpeg package, you will need to get it from their svn server. 
+To get the source code, you can use the included "ffmpeg-srctarball.sh" 
+script, which will to download the source code and create a compressed 
+tarball of it using the date (date +"%Y%m%d") as its version string.
+
+If you have already ffmpeg's source code as a tarball, for example:
+  ffmpeg-20071003.tar.bz2 
+You can tell the build script to use it with the following command:
+  VERSION=20071003 ./ffmpeg.SlackBuild
+Note that this is the version that will be used by default unless you
+specify otherwise.
+
+ffmpeg requires the following, all of which are available at SlackBuilds.org:
+ lame, faac, faad2, xvidcore, a52dec, and x264
